Re: [rdiff-backup-users] [Fwd: [librsync-devel] 'internal error: job made no progress' on 25G file - Bug Request ID: 1110812]

[Gerard van Dijnsen]

Hi,

I tried to report the following a few days back but due to problems with 
bounces as Savannah seems to have spam-relateds trouble it never got 
through. I will retry once more after whitelisting the nongnu.org 
server. This was the original message I sent:

Well the large file problem in librsync was solved by the maintainers 
themselves as can be seen in 
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=479439&aid=1110812&group_id=56125. 


I have tested it and it seems to work well for files of at least 5 Gb. 
As far as I know, no new release of the library is produced, so you'll 
have to patch manually if you have this problem, but at least it will 
work. One interesting point may be that only the server side needs to be 
patched as far as I can make out. I tested it and both backup and 
restore actions work flawlessly with only the server side patched.

Thanks for your input on this!
Gerard
